Commonwealth Games - Rugby Sevens

Long injury break in the game between Kenya and Zambia; sad to see a player being stretchered off.

@stargazer said in Commonwealth Games - Rugby Sevens:

England has beaten Austalia in the men's tournament: 26 - 17.
That means that England has won its pool and is through to the medal semis.

England looked pretty sharp running excellent angles making it hard for the OZ defenders.

[Stargazer]

Next game is AB7s v Canada.

[Stargazer]

Try Scott Curry!

[Stargazer]

Yellow for one of the Canadians (deliberate knock-on).

[Stargazer]

Try Regan Ware. 10 - 0 NZ with the kick to come.

[Stargazer]

Great conversion from Knewstubb. 12 - 0 NZ

[Bones]

@stargazer not sure about that one eh, the ball hit his body, so not knocked down?

[Stargazer]

Try Koroi under the sticks. Knewstubb converts. 19 - 0 NZ

[Stargazer]

Awesome defence from the AB7s. Canada knock on.

Half time: NZ 19 - 0 Canada..

Great first half. The AB7s are playing well.

[Stargazer]

Awesome play. Good break from Koroi, great pass to Regan Ware, who out-runs the Canadians and scores under the sticks.
Knewstubb converts: 26 - 0 to NZ

[Bones]

That was dumb Collier. Just when I'm starting to trust you.

[Stargazer]

And another try. Kurt Baker scores under the sticks. Easy conversion. NZ leads 33 - 0

[Stargazer]

Consolation try to Canada.

Full time: NZ 33 - 7 Canada

The AB7s win their pool and will also play England in the medal semis.

[Stargazer]

Didn't see the game, but Fiji has only narrowly beaten Wales. (21 - 17)
They've finished top of their pool and will play either South Africa or Scotland in the semis tomorrow.
